One could say this had a messy.... narrative.
To wit:
STORY/CHARACTER: The story is extremely messy and not well told. None of the characters are particularly interesting or fleshed out. Especially the ultimate villain. He's literally nothing and his mecha are just retreads of stuff from the Unicorn series.
There's interesting nuggets in the overall story but nothing to actually give this movie a reason to exist.
ART: Also messy. The designs are good, but the actual implementation and animation are not great all the time. Some returning characters look really derpy.
SOUND: Sawano score so if you've heard one of his OSTs you know what you're in for. Dub

[Edit] As someone who watched all the Gundam series, I must say that I was excited for NT Gundam. Although the movie is fair, I have some complaints and some mixed opinions about it. Overall I think that if this was a series it would be 100% better. See more below.
Story: Good story but badly directed. NT Gundam is the latest release of the UC (but not the last, chronologically), taking place after Unicorn. I would say that you need to have seen MS Gundam, Zeta Gundam, Char`s Counter Attack, and Unicorn Gundam before attempting to see NT. The story takes a HEAVY, and I ... Jun 25, 2021
For anyone coming to watch this movie after watching Gundam Unicorn and being blown away by how good it was, be aware that this movie is nowhere near as good as its prequel. Its plot is also not significant enough to have to watch before watching the Hathaway movies.
At first glance, Gundam NT mimics Gundam Unicorn with its beautiful animations and catchy soundtrack, but it falls short in terms of characters and plot. Despite having seen most of the Gundam series from the Universal Century, including the small ovas, I was left confused as Gundam NT left out a lot of explanations for ... Sep 20, 2023
Can't escape feeling like a spinoff rather than sequel.
I enjoyed the movie and it's quick pace. The core relationship between the three main characters was interesting enough, and the show had plenty of callbacks to prior events in the Universal Century timeline of Gundam. However, beyond some the delving into the power of Newtypes and the Psycommu system, the show can't shake the "direct-to-dvd unofficial sequel" feel. As someone who enjoys the supernatural aspect of the Newtype mythos, this movie was very informative for me, confirming longheld theories I had about what a newtype is and how key events in earlier shows manifested themselves. This is ... |
